Vangi bath | Brinjal Rice

Vangi bath is a South Indian rice recipe with Brinjal / Eggplant as main ingredient. Brinjal will be always there in my grocery list. I prepare lot of recipes with brinjal. My favourite recipes are kathirikkai chutney and ennai kathirikkai kuzhambu. Coming to Vangi bath, it is an easy and tasty lunch box recipe. No need for any side dish. The spiciness in this rice itself is self sufficient. Please check below for step by step instructions and pictures for preparing South Indian Vangi bath | Brinjal Rice.

Oh Boy!!! I am discovering many new recipes every day. Never knew that brinjal will be great for a rice dish and you proofed it right. Brinjal, the other fav of us and I use it quite often for my cooking.

The brinjals have oozed out a lovely touch and the rest of the ingredients boosted it further.
